The Government will take action to potentially block a rush of solar panel farms being proposed in the West Country and elsewhere after it emerged that green energy developers were eating up subsidies meant for householders and small businesses. Chris Huhne, the Energy Secretary, has called for a review of the Feed in Tariffs scheme, in which solar panel installations receive artifically inflated prices for the power they produce via a ?360 million fund. Mr Huhne said that large solar installations of scores of panels were not meant to be the beneficiaries of the funding. He indicated that funding could be cut by the summer and that the tariff regime would be altered for all installations by april 2012. (Robert Lea) Ian King, page 33
